A lot of women say to me, 'You know, I really hated you because my kids wanted you to be their mother.'

I'm not much of a family man. I'm just not that into it. I love kids, I adore them, but I don't want to live my life for them.

You have to put your kids first no matter what; that's how I feel.

It is just that I don't want a wife and I don't want kids.

I didn't want children until my late thirties because my career was taking off, and I was having such a good time in New Order. But when you have children, you have to make decisions; I always wanted to stay at home with my kids.

It's a different experience to be with your kids when your spouse isn't around.

I was really a little housewife with two small children, and I had a husband who really didn't want his wife to work. He didn't like the competition. That's why I'm not married to him anymore.

When you have kids, there's a tendency to put the marriage stew on the back burner and give it a quick stir now and then. But it's important to remember why you had children with this person.

You can't be a real man if you don't look out for your kids. They need you.
